RB Leipzig\u2019s Mukiele calls for major changes in FIFA 21 EA SPORTS \/ Wikimedia Commons: Steffen Pr\u00f6\u00dfdorfProfessional footballers have been a little more outspoken about their issues with FIFA in the last couple of years, and now RB Leipzig\u2019s French right-back Nordi Mukiele has called out EA over gameplay issues. [jwplayer zuUQpFp8] In the past, we\u2019ve seen the likes of Manchester City star striker Sergio Aguero hit out at the game\u2019s \u2018pay-to-win\u2019 elements, while Inter Milan\u2019s Romelu Lukaku took a pop at them for lowering his rating in FIFA 21. So it\u2019s no secret that these footballers all play FIFA just like us, and seem to get annoyed at it just like we do \u2014 and now we can add another name to the list. Nordi Mukiele, despite being a regular starter for RB Leipzig in their domestic and European campaigns, has given the game some time, and isn\u2019t best pleased with one major issue. Like many of his fellow FIFA 21 grinders, Mukiele has taken issue with issues in the penalty box in the game. \u201cPLEASE repair faults in the penalty area\u2026,\u201d he begged of EASPORTSFIFA in a November 12 tweet. \u201cI want to cry.\u201d Finishing the post with a number of crying emojis, you can imagine the sheer desperation that a professional football player must be experiencing to complain to the game\u2019s developers in such a public setting. @EASPORTSFIFA PLEASE repairing faults in the penalty area.. I want to cry \ud83d\ude2d\ud83d\ude2d\ud83d\ude2d \u2014 N O R D I (@NordiMukiele) November 12, 2020 He\u2019s likely referring to the issues with refereeing decisions when attacking in the opposition\u2019s box \u2014 or, more accurately, the lack of competent refereeing decisions made. Players are regularly reporting that referees are a little overzealous with giving away penalties, especially with similar fouls being committed in other parts of the pitch with no penalization for the offending team or player. Whether EA take heed of Mukiele\u2019s request remains to be seen, but there\u2019s no doubt we\u2019ve all seen some questionable decisions made in the box on either end of the pitch, so we\u2019ll just have to wait and see.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
